of Due Diligence
Before arranging travel and onboard attendance, an initial review can help determine which areas require particular attention.
The review is based on information supplied by the client and relevant accessible records. Missing or inconsistent information is identified for follow-up.
Review May Include
- Available class status and statutory survey timeline
- PSC history and vessel age / profile
- Upcoming survey exposure and dry-dock timing
- Documented defects and maintenance indicators
- Publicly available casualty / history information
- Areas requiring deeper onboard verification

A Preliminary Acquisition Tool
Remote screening is intended as a preliminary acquisition tool and does not replace physical onboard inspection.
Document review cannot establish the current physical condition of inaccessible systems or confirm that supplied records reflect conditions onboard. Relevant issues are carried forward for verification during vessel attendance.
